I looked at my e-mail for A build date... nope 7 months and absolutely nothing from Ford ... but I am used to it by now..... if it gets here it gets here, if not i can drive my escape lease until it gets here... not sure what happens to the lease if the Maverick doesn't get built this model year
make sure the weep holes in the bottom of the doors are clear... prevents water from building up causing rust... sometimes when they spray the wax in the lower doors it plugs those holes
contractually the week between christmas and new year is considered holiday pay.... anyone working during that downtime gets double time plus the holiday pay
They generally close the manufacturing plants to do maintainance during that week... it would also be cost prohibitive to pay line workers... triple time because of the holidays
